    Thanks but It's actually Edward Lowe's flag. Close, but the QAR skeleton isn't red and has a spear pointing towards a heart. I tried to make sure i fly an authentic flag, or at least one that was flown by a pirate.

    Guess I shouldn't comment on images I find see on my phone. Didn't realize Edward Teach wasn't considered a real pirate.
    Nice job on the looks pretty sturdy.

    I don't think that's what he was saying. I think he was saying that it was not Blackbeard's flag and that he wants authentic flags not because he wants authentic flags...

    Got it! It's still a good looking frugal mod. I had something similar on the bed rail but it didn't work well with glass bedsides.

    1. Edward teach most definitely is a real pirate. I just see TOO MANY jack sparrow (pirates of the Caribbean) flags. That all. Most don't even know who Edward Lowe is. Wasn't bitching, sorry if I came off tht way!!! Most know black beards flag. I like the red (no quarter) in this flag. Have a good weekend everyone!

    So good at it, his own men marooned him on an island, and when he was captured, as soon as they found out who he was, he was executed. Hahahahaa

    sound deadened... I know i know its worthless without video to prove it. but lets just take it with a grain of salt before i can figure out how to post a video.

    So heres how i did it-

    Went to Lowels and picked up some of the aluminum backed roofing membrane, and well applied it to the outer skin of the door on the inside of the door frame. the sound speaks for it self lows are lower and highs are higher, ill post a vid later to prove it but holy buckets

    The trim rings? Very small flat blade screwdriver and work your way around slowly until they pop out. Overhead console is just a few screws.
